Note that you don't *want* to be binary compatible with the junk
they distribute.

Unless you really expect to have copies of 5.00503 running?
No, probably not. 

RH and Debian distros are distriuted by heavy Python users who
go out of their way to hamstring Perl at every step. Unless 
things have changed massively, the Perl they distribute is not
only out of date it's nearly broken out of the box. Try running
"perl -V" sometime and review the "config_args" values.
